It really does feel like the Microsoft team working on the Edge browser are legitimately trying to put out a decent and truly evergreen web browser.
Today is a glorious day for Edge users and developers alike. Support for the <template>
element has now landed in the latest preview release of Edge. This means not too long from now, support for the <template>
element will be rolled out to everyone.
After the debacle of Internet Explorer 11 supposedly being evergreen, which turned out to be a nevergreen browser. It seems that the Edge team are actually listening to the community and implementing the latest and greatest of web APIs and specifications into their browser.
Support for the <template>
element is crucial to supporting Web Components. As a developer who has been working with Aurelia since it debuted early 2015, I’ve grown accustom to working with Web Components and I am happy to see support is finally coming to Edge.
To the future!
